A variational formulation of interaction problem is presented in this paper for the analysis of an elastic circular plate under axisymmetric vertical loading resting on an isotropic elastic half-space under the influence of surface energy. The Gurtin-Murdoch surface elasticity theory is adopted to take into account the surface energy effects. The contact surface between the plate and the half-space is assumed to be smooth, and the deflected shape of the plate is represented by a power series of the radial coordinate. The undetermined coefficients in the series are determined through the minimization of the total potential energy functional of the plate-half-space system. The accuracy of the present solution is verified by comparing with existing solutions, and selected numerical results are presented to portray the influence of surface energy effects on interaction between an elastic circular plate and an elastic half-space.

In this paper, dynamic response of an elastic circular plate, under axisymmetric time-harmonic vertical loading, resting on a transversely isotropic poroelastic half-space is investigated. The plate-half-space contact surface is assumed to be smooth and fully permeable. The discretization techniques are employed to solve the unknown normal traction at the contact surface based on the solution of flexibility equations. The vertical displacement of the plate is represented by an admissible function containing a set of generalized coordinates. Solutions for generalized coordinates are obtained by establishing the equation of motion of the plate through the application of Lagrange’s equations of motion. Selected numerical results corresponding to the deflections of a circular plate, with different degrees of flexibility, resting on a transversely isotropic poroelastic half-space are presented.

The transient dynamic response of an elastic circular plate subjected to a suddenly applied pressure is determined for several edge boundary conditions. The plate boundary is attached to a semi-infinite, radially rigid tube which is filled with an acoustic fluid, and pressure is applied to the in-vacuo side of the plate. The transient solution is determined by using a technique in which the plate is subjected to a periodic pressure function constructed of appropriately signed and time-shifted Heaviside step functions, and by relying on a physical mechanism which returns the plate and fluid near the plate to an unstrained state of rest between pulses. The plate response is presented for a number of radius-to-thickness ratios and edge boundary conditions when interacting with water. Comparisons are also made with solutions obtained using a plane wave approximation to the fluid field.

Abstract The frequencies of free vibration of a thin, flexible, circular plate stuck to the surface of a massless elastic half-space are solved by an application of the Rayleigh-Ritz principle. The approximate fundamental frequency is considered in detail when the plate is clamped, free, or hinged at its periphery. The method of obtaining the higher frequencies, such as those involving nodal diameters, is indicated.
